Of course!  I'm glad that you remember that TL-2007 had been a
crippled single platform/single user system.  But do you really
believe that you can make it a multi user system by arbitrary
spreading config files around the system?  No, TL-2007 is definitely
not a multi user system.  It even didn't distinguish between a normal
user and a system administrator.  Look into texmf.cnf for Windows.
You'll see something like TEXMFHOME=TEXMFLOCAL.

And as I said already, THERE ARE ENOUGH OTHER PROGRAMS WHICH ARE USING
TEXMFHOME ALREADY FOR ABOUT TWO DECADES.  Why, the hell, do you insist
on treating texworks as an exception.  Do you really want to go back
to the stone-age?

Sorry, I didn't know that you are the one who has to decide everything.

Regards,

Microsoft isn't the answer. Microsoft is the question, and the answer is NO.
